=================== BUG #809: FULL BUG SNAPSHOT =================== http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailbug&bug_id=809&group_id=11
Submitted by: yeupou Project: Savannah Submitted on: 2002-Jul-05 14:45 Category: Download area Severity: 3 - Ordinary Priority: High Bug Group: None Resolution: None Assigned to: loic Status: Open Effort: 0.00 Summary: file mode should be 2775 in any cases Original Submission: When people upload files to their download area, in some case, the mode of it is not 2775 as it should be (option -p - that could be usefull to conserve mtime, ctime- cause this). This results in many kind of problems. And since only admins have a shell account, only admins can fix this. Instead of permitting to users to set mode by themselves (Should we allow people to create directories with restricted access? It doesnt seem compatible with our policy.), we should do something that would automatically chmod the files in a proper way. The easiest way to do this should be to do a chmod 2775 /upload/* -R on a cronjob, but I'm sure it exists ways to do this automatically with ssh that avoid to use so much ressources to do a so minor task.
